recipe

• Step 1
  In a large mixing bowl, combine : the yeast, sugar, 80 ml of lukewarm water & 50g of flour (quantity for 1 pizza dough). Set aside for 15 min.
• Step 2
  In a second large mixing bowl, combine : the remaining water (50 ml for 1 pizza dough) & 1 teaspoon of salt. Pour in the oil & mix again.
• Step 3
  Pour in the yeast mixture into the second bowl. Mix using your hands - the texture will be quite liquid.
• Step 4
  Add in the remaining flour little by little, mixing in between each add-in, until a dough forms.
• Step 5
  Knead the dough for about 15 min, until smooth & supple. Form a dough ball.

  Place the dough ball in a clean mixing bowl. Cover with a clean & damp cloth & leave to rise in a dry warm space for at least 1h. The dough should double or triple in size.
• Step 7
  Once the dough has risen, degas it. On a clean surface, remove the air bubbles by gently kneading it fo 1-2 min.
